Introduction Photographers pay a lot of attention to exposure, white balance, image processing and printing, but we hear very few discussions on lighting the final framed print! This is perhaps because in the film only era, we had to make prints to see the image. Now we can of course just look at a screen. […]

Today we have a collection of seven digitally captured B&W photographs shot in several West Coast states, by Glenn Schultes. Name and Online Presence: Glenn Schultes About the Photographs: All taken in Western USA. I went on a self-drive holiday in April last year and I tried to shoot in the style of the 1920-1950’s […]

Here we have three photographs by Johann Bottos made from medium format film negatives. They’re his first lith prints – a process I personally love (aside from the waiting that is). Lith printing is not for the faint hearted, with paper development times that can exceed half an hour (in darkness), although more normally they’re […]

However, I’d go one step further and say ‘whatever form your final output, it is the displaying/showing of that photograph that is the final step’. For me, that means a physical print and […]

It was an Afghanistan image that is especially important to me and which I feel strongly connected with (Boxer Showering, Russian Pool). Over the last […]

I picked up the superb Panasonic 35-100 f4-f5.6 G OIS (which I reviewed here) to go with my tiny Panasonic GM-1 and 12-32mm OIS as a little travel/’walk around’ kit. I recently flew to Budapest, where I knew I would have little to no dedicated photography time. I took the Panasonic outfit, because it would sit in […]

Introduction The little Panasonic GM-1 really blew me away when I first started using it several years ago. Since then, it has contributed quite a few images to my portfolios, including a significant portion of the series Afghanistan 50K, which was shot from the air while transiting Afghanistan. It is tiny, produces good file quality and […]
